What are some good bands that you can compare to Necrophagist? I like them but I am kind of new to this genre.

There is a semi local band here in central florida called Neomortem.

Neomortem site

They are really good...worth a listen.

Nile,Cryptopsy,Suffocation,they don't really sound like Necrophagist but if your asking for technical you can't go wrong with any of those.

Tech death (in addition to those already mentioned):

Capharnaum
Spawn Of Possession
Severed Savior
Visceral Bleeding
Anata
Martyr
Theory In Practise

None of these really sound like Necrophagist (Martyr probably come closest) but they are technical death metal. If you really like Muhammed's soloing style you could do worse than listen to Vital Remains. Although they aren't classified as technical death per se, Dave Suzuki has a very similar style to Herr Suicmez.

but they are technical.

i'm not big on techy death myself, but you can't go wrong with devolved, psycroptic and decapitated, the latter not being ultimately brutal but still quite good.

Devloved aren't brutal at all. Here, check my favourite bands list, there are some exceptions, but a lot of them fit under 'Technical Death Metal', well with it being my favourite genre and all.

Anata, Atheist, Astriaal, Beheaded, Cephalic Carnage, Cryptopsy, Cynic, Death, Decapitated, Decrepit Birth, Deeds Of Flesh, Deepred, Demilich, Dying Fetus, Emperor, Exhumed, Fuck I'm Dead, Godless Truth, Goratory, Gorgasm, Gorguts, Immolation, Immortal, IHR, Meshuggah, Morbid Angel, Necrophagist, Nile, Origin, Psycroptic, Pyaemia, Severed Saviour, Spawn Of Possession, Suffocation, The Day Everything Became Nothing, Theory In Practice, Visceral Bleeding, Wormed, Yattering.

- Sickening Horror (they aint got an album out, its the usual band of the new nile drummer)

Oh...and...

What's with the '!!!'? BlackRoseImmortal is completely right.

Do you really think Behemoth is technical? Good yes, tech no. Techno!

i don't get it

The only thing I dont like about necrophagist is that they are to melodic on their lead guitar stuff. Other than that they are good musicians of course but I cant get in to the melodic sounding lead guitar stuff.
Check out DEEDS OF FLESH or DISGORGE ( cali) CRYPTOPSY.

Most Krisiun isn't really tech death. It's heavy and very fast, but most of it is rather easy if I recall correctly, as I haven't played along with Krisiun in a while. Some of the newer work is more complicated, and it is very good stuff for sure, but not really tech death. Easy mistake, though, I suppose, so don't worry about it.

Meshuggah. They arnt realy death metal but they are pretty technical. And for the "HAHAHAHAHAHAH" posted by MTM, i think he posted that becuase he doesnt realy like Krisiun that much. And yes, they arnt realy technical.
